Month: January 2011

I just thought it would be fun to post about the Golden Globes because I love watching all the shows about outfits and etc. Plus I stalked Perez Hilton’s blog to look at all of them. But I do have some different opinions than him. There was a lot of blush and nude colored dresses which I love right now. Green was another big color, which happens to be my favorite color! I also love how many sparkles and glitter this was this year! My fav! Anyway, here are some of the outfits from the night. Let me know what you think!

These first few are just some that I liked. My most favorite will come later.

Mila Kunis: Not my favorite dress ever, but I thought it was pretty on her, and I really liked the color on her.

Catherine Zeta Jones: Green again. I thought it was really pretty.

Angelina: I love the color on her. I’m not sure I love the shoulders, but overall I think it looks really good. (and I’m still Jen biased)

Anne Hathaway: I love this dress except for the shoulder pad thing going on, so that’s why it didn’t make my favorites. But I actually think she looks really pretty and I don’t even like her that much.

Sandra Bullock: I love this dress. Her bangs are throwing my off a little, but she tried something new so hey I give her that.

Scarlett Johansson: to be honest I don’t like her. And I think she kinda almost is wearing the same dress as Sandra Bullock, BUT I really like it except for the arms. I think maybe they shouldn’t have been so loose. I don’t know…thoughts?

Nicole Kidman: almost a little boring, but I sort of liked the simplicity.

Natalie Portman: little prego girl…so I think this dress is cute because of that. Otherwise it might be a little weird.

Leighton Meester: ahhh my love. I liked it. Almost victorian or something, with a little leg. I love the nude lace.

Megan Fox: Sort of boring for her I think, but I thought it was pretty.

Lea Michele: I’m not a fan of pink, but I think it was cute for her. My other two Glee girls made my favorites! So good night all around for the Glee stars!

Julianne Hough: I thought this was interesting, but it looked good on her and she looked really pretty. She put everything together well.

What were they thinking?!?

Some of these outfits I just don’t quite understand. Of course you see weird things at every awards show, but some of these people usually have amazing dresses and I’m just really disappointed. Then there are just the terrible ones.

Julianne Moore: This one isn’t the worst, but I feel like she just came back from India or something. Plus with all the green going on this year, she would have looked so good in green.

Jennifer Love : The dress would be pretty if she was getting married. Plus I feel like her hair looks so messy. At least put it up in a pretty, elegant updo or something if you’re going to wear a dress like that. .

Julia Styles: I just don’t like this. The actual dress isn’t that bad, but I think it makes her look bigger than she is and I don’t think she looks good all around. Right now I’m not so glad that people always tell me I look like her.

January Jones: could have been pretty maybe if she didn’t leave so much off the top.

O Heidi….I’m just disappointed…usually you’re one of my favorites 🙁 You couldn’t have found something better than that?

Christina : I can see what she was going for, but in my opinion it didn’t work. I usually love the lace over nude look. I actually like the dress, but it’s just not working on her. I also think her hair would have looked cute with curls or up maybe?

Gabby Sidible : WOW…purple leopard? I think compared to what she wore last year when she won for Precious, this is a complete failure. Ugh.

Helena Bonham Carter: By far the worst thing ever. That’s all I have to say. Her shoes don’t even match.

Favorites!

These are my very favorites from the night. LOVE THEM!

Emma Stone: K some people are saying she looks orange all over, which I guess she could have maybe skipped the spray tan, HOWEVER, I love the plain look. I don’t know why, but I’m just dying over it. I love love her hair blonde too. So simple.

Eva Longoria: Perez complained that she was in just another black dress. Umm I love that shape of it. I think she looks great! One of my favorites for sure.

Olivia Wilde: I can’t decide if this one or the next one is my favorite. Yeah she looks like maybe she’s going to prom or something, but she looks amazing, and I LOVE her dress. It’s gorgeous.

Sarah Hyland: Ok I didn’t even know who this was. I guess she’s on Modern Family and she’s only 20? I LOVE LOVE her dress. I would steal it from her any day. I think this is probably my favorite one of the night. I love that it’s still simple, but the top has the lace detail. I think her hair is cute and goes well with the dress. And of course, love the nude color!

I was bored, driving down to Jake’s the other day because my ipod died and the radio stations don’t work so well on the way to Holden…anway, I started thinking of a list of all my favorite things right now. Just thought it would be fun to make one. So here are the ABC’s of my current favorites (and some of my all time…)

A

Anthropologie – of course, I couldn’t not put it on the list.

Alternative Apparel – so comfy. I love it right now, because I hate getting dressed in the winter!

David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel – actors on the show Bones. I’m obsessed. I’ve been flying through the seasons like mad.

Erin Heatherton – Can I say I’m obsessed? I think she is the cutest thing ever. I want to be her. Or at least look like her.

High Heels – the higher the better!

Resolutions – I always like making resolutions to TRY and keep at the beginning of the year. I like the idea of new starts.

Rubios – best fish tacos ever.

Reading – I just read “Never Let Me Go” by Kazuo Ishiguro. Very interesting, but I really liked it. I cried at the end of it. Now I’m reading “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”…murder mystery, suspense, etc. I like it so far. I’ll let you know how it goes. I love getting under the covers and just reading the night away. I’m also so looking forward to watching both of the movies afterwards.S

Seat Heaters – a life saver for me anytime I get into my car during the winter.

Sequins – I’ve been DYING over things with sequins lately (hence the shorts I wore on New Years Eve). I really want a sequined jacket or blazer.

Sushi – I crave it ALL THE TIME lately.

Snickerdoodle Hot Chocolate – from Juice and Java in Provo. Life changing.

T

Taylor Swift – can’t stop listening to her new cd “Speak Now”. If any of you know me, I’ve always loved her, but really it’s been on repeat for like 3 weeks straight.

Tokyo – new sushi place in Lehi next to my work. Half off sushi every day after 4. LOVE LOVE!

Tamales – I mentioned them earlier from El Pollo Loco, but I’ll eat them from anywhere. I can’t stop.

Victoria Secret Models –they’re my inspiration to work out again. Plus, how amazing was the fashion show? They’re all gorgeous. I’d be any one of them. I’m obsessed with the all accesspage at victoriasecret.com too.

Vix Swimwear -not much to explain. I keep getting emails because apparently swimlines come out in Jan. so it’s making me want to buy bathing suits…too bad I can’t wear them for at least 6 months.

W

Weheartit.com – I’ve been spending WAY too much time there lately.

Watches – I want to start a collection. I love them as an accessory. Too bad I just want all the expensive ones. AHHHX

Y

Year 2011 – like I said, I like resolutions. I’m really excited to do new things this year and for what’s to come. So I’m adding it to my list.

Yoga – been doing Jillian Michael’s yoga. Relaxing and it gets you in shape. Two birds with one stone.

Z

ZHT, the morning Zoo – I listen to it on the way to work, and I think they are hilarious. I love the radio station in general, but they crack me up. Plus their website is equally entertaining.Rachel Zoe– just love her. Can’t get enouh. Love her favorite picks on Piperlime.

Gold’s was doing this great deal, no money down, free training session, first month free…blah blah blah…and it’s been way too long since I’ve been able to watch my tv shows while running on a treadmill (ok maybe briskly walking if it’s a really good show), go to kickboxing or power pump, or even lift what weights my pathetic little arms can handle. I’ve been forced to do Jillian Michael’s in my room, which I do recommend. It’s a freaking good workout! Needless to say, I just miss the gym. And it’s January! Resolutions DUH!

So I’m officially making myself become a gym rat.

My inspiration would be the Victoria Secret Fashion Show (see below). Forgive me when I look like her. 🙂 haha at least that would be my goal. I love her.
